Project Atlanta part 3–Monitoring

In the last part of my series on Project Atlanta, the new cloud based SQL monitoring tool from Microsoft, I have it setup to watch my BI server and left it running for a couple of days before making this screen cast..

As you can see you get 3 different views of the server:

How it is now

How it has changed between each snapshot. by default a snapshot is sent every day form the Atlanta agent on the SQL Server to the gateway on onward to the Atlanta service running in the cloud

Actions that the service has identified. Each action has three tabs:

the action itself

the Technical background for the action such as a link to a KB article

the context – the html detailing the issue

Also the actions can be closed off as you choose to resolve or ignore them
